Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To open the cover of an device such as electronic pocketbook by almost 360 degrees and handle it easily.
SOLUTION: Two links (axes A and B) are provided to connect a main body 12 with a cover 14. A first hinge having the axis A operates up to an opening angle of θ from the closing state of the cover. The opening limit of the first hinge is θ1.
